How to make a simple but effective vacuum chamber with a fridge compressor and a steel pot. Very inexpensive if you can find these few components used!
A vacuum chamber is needed for some other projects that I'll do in the future like degassing resin, plaster, silicon and wax or stabilizing wood! Be sure to subscribe if you are new to the channel and turn notifications on so you won't miss upcoming video.
Index of operation and materials:
0:03 fridge compressor
0:19 Steel pot 27cm diameter, nice thick walls
0:21 Specific high strenght polycarbonate 10mm (better use thicker like 20mm for regular polycarbonate or plexiglass)
0:32 Gas rated tubing with thick walls secured with steel hose clamp
1:10 Finding, center punching and drilling hole
1:31 Threading for 1/4 inch pipe thread connector
2:00 Various 1/2 inch pipe connection. Doesn't matter size get cheapest, I'm pretty sure any measure would work just fine
2:02 Vacuum gauge bought on amazon:

2:10 Assemble everything with teflon tape and "Hand Tool Rescue" wrench
4:09 Connect other end of the compressor pump to the valve assembly again with steel hose clamp
4:12 Sealing the edge of the pot with car door rubber trim (used to prevent damage to edge of car's doors)
5:00 leak between seal parts filled with silicone
5:50 rewiring pump power cable and adding a power switch to one of the live wire to make it easier turning on and off the pump
8:05 Thick MDF board used as base
8:42 Rubber feet added to the bottom side of the base
With my particular compressor I'm able to pull -27.5 inHg.
The ball valve between the chamber and the compressor was not needed at the end, the compressor must have some kind of one way valve so even when it's turned off it does not let air in.
Thanks a lot for watching, I hope you liked the video!

This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. 🎥
Origins of the Idea 🌱
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. 🧠
Challenges Faced 🤔
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. 🔍
Creating Truly Random Links 🛠️
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
About YouTube 📺
YouTube, an American video-sharing website based in San Bruno, California, offers a diverse range of user-generated and corporate media content. 🌟
Content and Users 🎵
Users can upload, view, rate, share, and comment on videos, with content spanning video clips, music videos, live streams, and more.
While most content is uploaded by individuals, media corporations like CBS and the BBC also contribute. Unregistered users can watch videos, while registered users enjoy additional privileges such as uploading unlimited videos and adding comments.
Monetization and Impact 🤑
YouTube and creators earn revenue through Google AdSense, with most videos free to view. Premium channels and subscription services like YouTube Music and YouTube Premium offer ad-free streaming.
As of February 2017, over 400 hours of content were uploaded to YouTube every minute, with the site ranking as the second-most popular globally. By May 2019, this figure exceeded 500 hours per minute. 📈
